Love on the Pitch: A jock/geek friends to lovers rugby romance

Written by Neil Plakcy

Narrated by Neil S. Plakcy

Warren Updegrove's best "friend with benefits" is Thom Lodge, a geeky grad student who tutored him in math when he was a struggling undergrad on the football team.

After playing in the NFL for a year, Warren is released from the team and returns to South Florida, where he drinks too much and loses his pro conditioning. When he meets former Olympian Victor Ragazzo and joins Victor's gay rugby team, he falls hard—but will Victor's baggage bring down their budding relationship? 

Will Thom ever step off the sidelines and declare his love for Warren—or watch his BFF ruin his life with a jerk?
